QPSK / DQPSK / DPSK

Description

Phase-shift keying (PSK) is a method of digital communication in which the phase of a transmitted signal is varied to convey information.

The QPSK/OQPSK/DPSK circuit board provides students with the theory and measurement skills required to implement and test different types of PSK modulation and demodulation techniques used in pulse-coded modulation (PCM) schemes.

The student first learns the principles and operational characteristics of unipolar and bipolar signals in a baseband transmission. Next, the student measures and compares BPSK, QPSK, OQPSK, and DPSK signals in the time and frequency domains using an oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer, respectively. Lastly, the student will become familiar with all components of the board; will be able to isolate, identify and test a series of circuits; and will perform troubleshooting exercises to demonstrate mastery of the course objectives.
